Hayley O’Keeffe
Founder
The Animal News Agency was founded by Hayley O’Keeffe in 2019.
With more than two decades of experience as a reporter and editor across national and local newspapers, Hayley brings a wealth of journalistic expertise and enthusiasm to all the projects she works on.
The Animal News Agency was inspired by her lifelong love of animals and her belief that kindness, honesty and fresh thinking are at the heart of great journalism.
She also really believes in using her skills to shout about the grassroots people who don't ordinarily get in the press. If that's you get in touch!
